Subject: [PATCH 38/41] ext4: Track metadata bhs in fs-private inode part
Date: Fri, 20 Mar 2026 14:41:33 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260320134100.20731-79-jack@suse.cz> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260320131728.6449-1-jack@suse.cz>

Track metadata bhs for an inode in fs-private part of the inode. We need
the tracking only for nojournal mode so this is somewhat wasteful. We
can relatively easily make the mapping_metadata_bhs struct dynamically
allocated similarly to how we treat jbd2_inode but let's leave that for
ext4 specific series once the dust settles a bit.
